French Toast Roll Ups
A fun twist on classic French toast, filled with sweet or savory ingredients, rolled up, and cooked to golden perfection. Perfect for creative brunches or quick breakfasts.
Ingredients
- 6-8 slices - soft white bread crusts removed, flattened
- 1/4 cup - vegan cream cheese or regular cream cheese
- 1/2 cup - diced strawberries or other fruit
- 2 large - eggs
- 1/4 cup - almond milk or dairy milk
- 1 tbsp - maple syrup
- 1/8 tsp - sea salt
- 1 tsp - cinnamon optional, for custard mixture
- 1 tbsp - melted butter for cooking
- Cinnamon sugar mixture for coating, optional
Instructions
- Flatten bread slices with a rolling pin after removing crusts.
- Spread cream cheese and diced strawberries onto each slice, then roll tightly.
- Whisk eggs, almond milk, maple syrup, cinnamon, and salt in a bowl to create the custard.
- Dip each roll-up in the custard mixture, coating evenly.
- Cook in a non-stick pan with melted butter over medium heat until golden brown (2-3 minutes per side).
- Optional: Roll cooked roll-ups in cinnamon sugar for extra sweetness.
Notes
- Use day-old bread to prevent sogginess.
- Fillings can vary: try Nutella, peanut butter, cheese, or ham.
- For vegan versions, substitute eggs with flaxseed meal (1 tbsp flaxseed + 2.5 tbsp water per egg) and use plant-based milk.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container (fridge: 4 days; freezer: 2 months).
